The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Widget: Gtk' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Thanks for the report!
This is likely a Gnome Xwayland bug (bug 1788205) and should be fixed by https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2970.
Please test if this problem can be avoided by starting Firefox with this command:
$ MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 snap run firefox
To use MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 by default, you can either:
a) Switch to Firefox Nightly which already uses MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 by default (bug 1543600):
sudo snap refresh --channel=edge firefox
b) Add export MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 to the end of /home/yourusername/.profile to set it permanently for your user account.
$ echo -e "\nexport MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1" >> ~/.profile
It takes effect after logout&login or a reboot.
